It takes our bodies over a year to recover from pregnancy, so listen to your body and make sure to prioritize healing and addressing any pain or discomfort over weight loss in the beginning. Make the most of your available pockets of time. Have some 20- to 30-minute workouts ready to go so you can exercise during nap times, or use your downtime to meal prep some nutritious lunches or snacks for yourself to have on hand. Mental health is a huge component of postpartum life, and our most successful weight loss clients have a therapist they work with. Lean on fellow moms, your friends and family, or a therapist you can meet with.   Hi! I’m Illa (MS, RDN) and I am a Registered Dietitian who provides weight loss coaching for millennials.
